Venting Having a mental breakdown because of recent oblivion remastered release

[CeaseExist]

SAME SHIT, DIFFERENT DAY

Since few fucking years it started happening, although I know the true beginnings were much much older in fact, the large scale ABUSE and SOCIAL ENGINEERING around and inside gaming industry has been on the rise only lately, like few years, with even TODD FUCKING HOWARD himself telling gamers to "GO FUCK THEMSELVES AND JUST BUY HIS GAMES" as well as the director of halo infinity LITERALLY SAYING THE SAME - "SHUT THE FUCK UP, DON'T CRITICIZE, WE DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU AND YOUR LITTLE GAMES, WE CARE ABOUT MONEY, NOW GIVE IT TO US AND GO AWAY"

Fucking elitist pieces of shit, getting positions of power over triple A game studios by pure nepotism, fucking corporate rats with no experience with games, no FUCKING knowledge about them and even not 1 minute of playtime even IN FUCKING CANDYCRUSH get to DIRECT WHOLE FUCKING INDUSTRY (straight into the ground I hope). They are all graduates of business schools, human recources, analytics, social engineering and shit, NOT A SINGLE FUCKING DEV IN SIGHT IN ANY POSITION OF POWER AND DECISION MAKING.

Then they just fucking test the waters, and do limit tests on HOW MUCH THEY CAN FUCK OVER PEOPLE AND STILL GET MONEY, time and time again they are constantly lowering standards, to the point people LITERALLY GOT GASLIGHT into DEFENDING SHITTY, OUTSOURCED, SOUL-LACKING, MONEY GRABBING TITLES - like starfield for example. People started to GET FUCKING COMFORTABLE WITH BARE FUCKING MINIMUM.

And then, there are influencers - "Oh yeah, this game is SOOO GOOOD!!! PEOPLE, BUY IT, I'M A REBEL GAMER JUST LIKE YOU! I SHIT ON CORPOS JUST LIKE YOU! BUT BUY THIS GAME, IT'S SO GOOD, I'M DEFINITELY NOT BOUGHT AND ENGINEERED BY MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR COMPANIES, DEFINITELY NOT BLACKROCK™ OR TENCENT™ OWNED CREATED ARTIFICIALLY PERSONA! HA HA, THAT WOULD BE CRAZY!"

Why, why are people such fucking retarded monkeys, who are SO EASILY, EFFORTLESSLY manipulated into wanted behaviors, why are they so easily gaslighted, so easily lead on and so prone to getting their brains rewritten?!

I literally have a guy I know, that basically on discord said LITERALLY, LETTER BY LETTER SAME FUCKING PHRASE AS ONE HUGE STREAMER.

What the fuck? am I the only one seeing it? am I fucking crazy or what?

I'm sorry this is looking like this, but I literally have mental breakdown right now and couldn't write normally, without trying to THROW OUTSIDE UNREAL FUCKING RAGE AND HOPELESSNESS RESIDING IN ME RN.

If you have any more thoughts on the matter, I would be happy to read them, because apparently, in the end, I will CBT not because of how shit is my life, but because of how fucking retarded other humans are and how SHITTY THE GAMING INDUSTRY IS RIGHT NOW - also because of people who still fucking buy games INSTEAD OF GOING ON THE WEB AND TYPING "pirate games how" and LEARNING IN 5 FUCKING MINUTES HOW TO GET THIS EXPLOITATORY SHIT FOR FREE.​

PS: FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

Thanks for the laugh, I'm better now

It looks like shit.

You could give them infinity dollars and ask them to make another Morrowind. Not "Morrowind remastered", no a new game of the same quality. They couldn't. Doesn't matter how much you'd give them. Straight up incapable.

ngl i did not read all of this, but people have been begging for oblivion remastered for years, dude.

 

[yowai]

you're not the only one angry about this and it's a theme with many things not just games, big company getting a monopoly on some industry and starting to cut costs and making things seem like theyve improved but actually prioritizing profit over quality and people just going along with it
just do your own thing and stick to older or indie games, support smaller studios and pirate from companies that are greedy lmao

The point is - people were begging for oblivion remastered - what they got was vanilla oblivion with shitty shaders slapped on it - nothing changed, no bugs fixed, no additional content from cut content in the original release, nothing - same game, no effort put into it - even the level scaling wasn't touched.

The most rage inducing thing is that people fucking accepted it like it's coming of christ himself - game reviewers claiming that they changed leveling for the better "it increases when you do things" - like...have you fucking played original oblivion? - "...I didn't play the original one but..." - oh yeah, they didn't, that's why they DON'T KNOW THE SYSTEMS ARE THE SAME.

And yeah, people got it, and suddenly they are happy with bare fucking outsourced minimum, that is just a slap to the face and people are happy with it.

Yeah, I'm still gripping it together somehow because I know I'm not alone in this pain, although everytime I see the web get lit up like christmas tree with bot activity, social engineered content and overall artificial activity that basically goes "corpos are so goood! Let's spend our money! this is A MASTERPIEECE!" I wanna die, like, so bad.

That's actually a thing I was thinking about, at this point the corpos that own shit, aren't even human driven, logic capable creations. They are soulless entities, that are fueled more and more by people getting sucked into it, there is no salvation - like you said, you could give them infinite monis and they wouldn't even be capable anymore of doing anything human.

The only way is for those huge corpos to burn down, go bankrupt, fail miserably and stop existing. We can actually see the final stages of how it is happening right now, with studios not making enough money to keep themselves afloat, and finally taking over governments to give itself more time with bail-outs tax evasion and shit. I wonder how long it will take for them to finally die, or will they take whole economy and everyone down with themselves.
